Cycling

“Every day, Perth residents make 240,000 private car trips that are less than one kilometre. By converting these trips to walking or bicycle trips, we would be doing ourselves a great service. There are personal benefits such as exercise and health, cost savings, social interactions, and pleasure.”

There are also community benefits such as less pollution, noise, road congestion, accidents and parking problems… With the natural advantages of Perth there is great opportunity to adapt urban design to the needs of safe bike riding and elevate it to a far more legitimate transport mode.” Bicycle Transportation Alliance
